Elicia was very pleasant and efficient with my eye exam. Dr. Lark was friendly and very professional regarding my vision and current condition. My wait time was minimal for a Monday morning. Everyone in this office is always very congenial. It’s nice to know. I have an eye Center with professionals I can trust.

Dr. Lark tells it like it is. He lets you know what he doesn’t want to happen with your eyes, so you pay close attention to his instructions because I definitely don’t want anything to happen. Nice doctor, and I follow all his instructions and so far I’m doing ok.
